Why Host WordPress Sites on GoHighLevel?
Over 40% of all websites in existence have been created by WordPress, and globally the platform remains the top choice for building websites.
GoHighLevel has recognized the need and convenience for its users to have all their websites available from a single place and therefore introduced the ability to host and access WordPress websites on the GoHighLevel platform.
By doing so, it removes the need for customers and businesses to have multiple subscriptions for hosting and marketing services and removes the requirement of having to log in to multiple platforms to manage all their sites.
Furthermore, It provides an additional revenue opportunity for GoHighLevel users as they can resell WordPress hosting to each of their clients (subaccounts).

How to Set Up WordPress Hosting on GoHighLevel
To find WordPress and set it up, you must be in the Agency View of the platform. Select Reselling from the left-hand menu and choose the plan you want.
If you plan to resell WordPress to your clients (subaccounts) here, you can also add the price you’re planning to sell it for (if you’re not sure at this stage, you can go back and edit this amount at a later stage).
Once you have confirmed the purchase, WordPress will be available under the Sites section for each subaccount.Â
Reselling WordPress to Clients
Reselling WordPress to your clients (subaccounts) has never been easier. As noted above, when you set up WordPress hosting, you are asked to input a resale value.
Now, when clients head to the Sites tab and select WordPress, they will be given the option to purchase the feature and pay the amount you previously set up.
There is full flexibility here. You either charge a blanket price for all your clients, or you can tailor the cost for specific clients.
To adjust the blanket cost, head to the Reselling tab while in Agency View and change the price there.
If you want to change the price for a specific client, select Subaccounts while in Agency view and click Manage Client for the relevant account.
Here, you can toggle the ability to offer WordPress on or off, and you can accordingly set the price for the service.
How Much Can You Charge Clients for GoHighLevel WordPress Hosting?
You can charge clients whatever you want for WordPress hosting. GoHighLevel gives you free rein over this aspect.
Setting Up WordPress for Your Own Business
The process is a little complicated if you are setting up WordPress for your own business rather than for clients.Â
You must still follow the steps above and purchase one of the WordPress pricing plans.Â
Next, you need to exit out of Agency View and select your own sub-account from the Sub-Accounts tab and click on Manage Client.
Once in the editing page toggle Offer WordPress to On and then adjust the Your Price amount to $0. This ensures you don’t pay anything extra on top of your existing WordPress subscription.
Next, head to Sites, select WordPress and go through the signup process.
After you have completed this step, you will have access to the WordPress feature and can fully use the feature.
